Holiday Decor Style: Trend or Tradition?
You may be thinking, “whoa, Erin… too early”. But I sit here with over an inch of snow on the ground this morning, and cannot help but get into the holiday spirit – big time. Also, I’m a big advocate of thinking of my decorating plans early, implementing half of the look for Thanksgiving, then adding on the extra Christmasy touches for the month of December. This makes the decorating go a little smoother and helps my ‘look’ stay consistent.
Speaking of my ‘look’, each year I have an internal struggle about my Christmas decor. Early in the season (like now) I think I want to do something really fun and new, but then once the carolers start caroling and sugarplums start dancing, I always yearn for a super traditional look.
I think this year, I’m going to strike a balance. I’ve got some schemes brewing in my mind already and I can’t wait to show you my direction, but do tell… When it comes to the holiday season, where does your decor lean? Trendy? Or traditional?
p.s. If you want to strike a trend vs traditional balance with me – then you should come to my West Elm DIY event this thursday where we’ll all make wreaths together!
